candidates on how teacher efficiency should be through peer assessment and
active learning. For this purpose, an implementation was performed on the
presentation skills of the social studies teacher candidates at a state
university. In the study group, there are 28 teacher candidates as 10 males
and 18 females. The study was designed in the case study. For 9 weeks, 8
groups gave lessons and a general assessment was performed for 1 week. The
teacher candidates, in groups of twos, made presentations in accordance with the
class level related to the subjects included in the secondary school social
studies program. The presentations are based on critical, empathetic,
reflective and project-based thinking. As the data collection tool,
preliminary and final assessment forms consisting of open-ended questions
were distributed. During the process, the teacher candidates were asked to
keep individual and group reflective diaries. The diaries were used to
support the final assessment forms. The data were coded through content analysis
and analyzed by using the NVIVO 12 program. The main theme in the findings
obtained was coded in accordance with peer assessment and active learning.
The main themes were determined as The Effect on Peer Relationships, The
Effect of Being Assessed, The Effect on the Assessor, and The Effect of the
Process. The Category, Code and
Dimensions were also shaped according to the main themes. The findings of the
reflective diaries support the final assessment. At the end of the process,
teacher candidates stated that peer assessment made a positive contribution
to them, their relationships with their peers were negatively affected
sometimes and active learning contributed to their personal development,
professional knowledge, and collaborative works. |
